It happens every year, but people seem surprised each time it happens. It's like living in a flood plain and being surprised when the water comes.

Sounds like 90% of the peopel in new england the second a flake of snow falls from the sky. Half the people drive 10 below the speed limit, regardless of visibility and road conditions (it gets COLD, so we get a lot of dry snow, which doesnt really make things dangerous), while the other half drive faster and more impatiently than they normally would, like they are saying "Screw you weather!"
